Chapter 846: Dao Integration Saint’s Coercion, Jiang
Chengxuan Decisively Rejected
Editor: Henyee Translations
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The tendrils’ impact on Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s domain only caused ripples to spread, without inflicting any substantial damage.
This display of strength left onlookers in awe.
How strong was this couple?
Despite Tai Cangzi’s formidable abilities, even he couldn’t withstand the tendrils’ assault, yet Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan seemed to handle it with ease.
As the tendrils prepared for another wave of attacks, a thunderous roar suddenly emanated from the distance.
“Beast, how dare you!”
Boom!
With the shout, an overwhelmingly powerful aura surged from afar.
Everyone present, including Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, felt a chill run down their spine at the might of this presence.
“It’s a Dao Integration Saint!”
This thought crossed everyone’s mind, and many faces lit up with relief and joy.
The situation had been dire, with even Tai Cangzi falling victim to the tendrils.
If not for Jiang Chengxuan’s intervention, it was likely they would have all perished.
This was something that the righteous sects had never expected.
BOOM!
As a majestic figure descended, everyone could see it was a middle-aged man dressed in dark robes.
Judging from his attire, he was a Dao Integration Saint from the Divine Shadow Gate.
Elder Yuan Feng, Elder Chi Yan, Divine Lord Frostblade, and Yue Chanjuan all breathed sighs of relief, thankful that the newcomer wasn’t from Qiankun Hall.
Otherwise, things might really…
However, just as they felt relieved, an angry shout came from even further away, “Who dares to kill my Qiankun Hall’s Holy Son? Show yourself!”
The expressions of Elder Yuan Feng, Divine Lord Frostblade, and the others changed drastically.
“Oh no! That’s the Dao Integration Saint from Qiankun Hall!”
In an instant, their hearts sank.
Soon, the Dao Integration Saint from the Qiankun Hall arrived in front of everyone.
It was an old man with a long beard and white eyebrows.
He had an expression as dark as could be, his brows even harboring traces of murderous intent.
Upon his arrival, unlike the Dao Integration Saint from the Divine Shadow Gate who began to address the tendrils’ source, his gaze turned coldly towards the assembled cultivators.
“Tell me, who killed the Holy Son of our Qiankun Hall?
I will definitely burn his bones and scatter his ashes today!”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present could not help but feel an extremely great pressure.
Some people present were already trying their best to hide it.
However, there were still a few people who turned to look at Jiang Chengxuan and the others.
How could this escape the attention of the white-browed old man?
Almost immediately, the old man with white eyebrows suddenly turned to look at Jiang Chengxuan.
“Kid, are you related to the death of our sect’s Holy Son?”
The old man’s aura became terrifyingly oppressive, causing the bones of those present to creak under the weight of his presence, and some with lower cultivation even started bleeding from their mouths.
However, the Dao Integration Saint of the Qiankun Hall did not care at all. His gaze was still fixed on Jiang Chengxuan.
Jiang Chengxuan did not react much to this.
He slowly looked up at the white-browed old man and said in an extremely calm tone,
“I didn’t kill your Holy Son.
The real cause of his death was the owner of the tentacle.
If you really want to avenge your Holy Son, go and deal with the owner of the tentacle with that senior from the Divine Shadow Gate.”
This unexpectedly composed response from Jiang Chengxuan’ to a Dao Integration Saint took everyone by surprise.
The old man’s eyes narrowed, a flicker of ice crossing his face.
“Is that so? Yet, why do I feel that you indeed have a connection to my Holy Son’s demise?
How about you swear a heavenly oath that you had nothing to do with my Holy Son’s death? How about that?” he proposed.
Elder Yuan Feng, Divine Lord Frostblade, and others looked visibly troubled upon hearing this.
They were acutely aware that if the matter was scrutinized, Tai Cangzi’s death did have some indirect link to Jiang Chengxuan.
If he really did as the white-browed old man said and made the so-called Heavenly Oath, it would definitely bring great obstruction to his future cultivation.
In fact, it was not impossible to cut off his future cultivation path.
At that moment, Jiang Chengxuan’s expression turned grim.
He fixed his gaze on the white-browed elder and coldly retorted,
“And what if I refuse?”
“What did you say?”
The elder’s eyes narrowed sharply.
Everyone else at the scene felt anxious for Jiang Chengxuan.
They were taken aback that he dared to speak in such a manner to a venerable Dao Integration Saint.
This was not merely arrogance but outright disrespect towards a Dao Integration Saint.
Under such circumstances, if the Dao Integration Saint decided to strike him down, no one could protest.
After all, it was Jiang Chengxuan who showed disrespect first.
“What if I insist you take an oath?”
The aura around the white-browed elder became dangerously intense, darkening the skies around them.
The terrifying pressure fell directly on Jiang Chengxuan, as if trying to crush him.
Yet, Jiang Chengxuan did not cower. Instead, he stood even straighter, meeting the elder’s gaze with calmness and stated,
“I said no, and that means no. Are you intending to coerce me, elder?”
BOOM!
As he finished speaking, a wave of energy burst forth from behind Jiang Chengxuan, countering the elder’s oppressive aura.
Witnessing this, the elder’s eyes glinted with even more intense coldness.
He declared,
“I now suspect your involvement in my Holy Son’s death.
Since you refuse to comply with my demands, prepare to join my Holy Son in death!”
